Question

What is the most pitches a batter can see without swinging the bat or reaching on base?

He has to take every pitch and he can't reach on base. What are the most pitches he can see?

HINT: The answer is not five or infiinity.

Answer 1

Joba is right... it's 10.

The 11th pitch he would reach base or swing... so 10 is the most without doing those.

Answer 2

10

Answer 3

isnt it six.. he could just get a full count and strike out looking.

make more quizzes, they're fun haha

Answer 4

11, Full count, runner caught leaning, next inning strike out on a 3-2 count looking

Answer 5

Little Joba is right its 10 you can bat in two innings if runners get picked off. Work a full count twice.  

Answer 6

Good question, what happens if he is standing at the plate and the ball hits his bat a few times and goes foul without him swinging?

Answer 7

11 only if a runner is caught stealign a base. 6 if the bases are empty.

Answer 8

Well, it is 6. He would have a 3-2 count (5 pitches) and then the 6th would come on the next pitch.  

Answer 9

11 he has full count runner gets thrown out stealing end of inning.

then next inning then he has full count again and strikes out looking

Answer 10

Guy on 1st. 2 outs. The guy receives 5 pitches. Then the guy on 1st is picked off.

next inning, same guy receives 5 more pitches. That's ten! Then, the pitcher throws a strike looking. That's eleven!

Or it could be batting practice, and the pitcher throws 30 pitches to the batter and the batter does not swing at any of them.

Answer 11

10 a runner stealing could be caught out to end the inning and would start fresh next inning : )
